B220R biodegrades fats

B220R is a desiccation-tolerant blend of selected microbes specifically designed for biodegrading fats, oils and greases (FOG). B220R neutralises odours in sewers and pump stations.

Conventionally, sluggish pump stations are cleaned manually.
However, this method is dangerous and also very expensive considering the
safety procedures and specialized gear required. BIO-SYSTEMS B220R offers a
solution that is not only far safer, but drastically more cost effective in
that entry into wet-wells is seldom necessary.

The B220R package consists of 2 x 250g soluble pouches. The
pink pouch dissolves in minutes for immediate action. The brown pouch floats in
the wet-well for up to a couple of hours, then dissolves for long-lasting
secondary action.

Decongests
clogged floatsThis constant cause of pump station malfunction is easily
remedied by B220R as it efficiently breaks down the dried fatty deposits
encrusting chains and floats.

Purges
rising mainsThe small percentage of B220R microbes that ‘bleed’ past the
pump will attack the fat lining the walls of the rising main during the rest
cycle. As a result, the throat of the sewer gradually opens and returns to its design
diameter reducing back pressure on the pump with consequent savings in the
amount of current drawn.

Benefits up-lineBy countering the anaerobic conditions in long rising mains (LRM),
B220R delivers a better quality effluent to the up-line wet-well with a
consequent reduction/prevention in odour.

Improves
effluent qualityAfter dosing routinely for two months, B220R will deliver a
better quality effluent with reduced FOG to the WwTW, purging sewers and pump
stations as its influence progresses.

Reduces
effluent loadThe final destination (the WwTW) will ultimately benefit
from the routine dosing, reducing the organic load and allowing improved sludge
settlement.

Extended
residence timeAs B220R ‘lives’ in the top 300mm of the wet-well, the
majority of the microbes remain within the pump station chamber (wet-well) ensuring
long-term activity.

Fast fact:Regular dosing with B220R will pay for itself by
reducing the need for cleaning labour, suction tankers and sewer jetting as
well as the maintenance costs of wear and tear on pumps in pump stations.
